Womens Fitness Clubs of Canada

Ignore the haters!! This is the best gym I have ever joined!! Its not the most glamorous club but by far the best!! I've been a member of the most upscale clubs in the city and felt uncomfortable around the snobby members who spend most of the time fixing there hair and makeup and staring you down more than working out!! It's an older club so it might come off as being unkempt but trust me the adorable cleaning ladies are on the go 24/7 which I never even saw as a member of the Dunfield Club!! Its more of a community of women supporting and encouraging each other, I adore all of my Yoga and Pilates instructors, the front desk girls and Kim of course!! A special congrats to Kim on her recent engagement:)) This is the first club I have been a member of that I actually use at least 6 days a week:))

I have been so impressed with the service at this fitness club. Kim, at the front desk and in membership is always there with a smile and goes above and beyond to make my workout experience as enjoyable as it could be! Thank you so much!!

I got a complimentary session when I joined the gym in June. I wanted to lose 10 to 15 lbs, which
I had slowly put on over the past few years. I was convinced that the only way
to lose it was to start exercising. After all, my diet was very healthy. Or so I thought!
During my complimentary session I quickly realized that Maria was very educated and knowledgeable
and that her personalized approach was well worth a try.
Over the course of the following 10 sessions Maria generously shared her vast knowledge, and I
finally learned what healthy and satisfying meals are all about. My cravings and often
feeling hungry have stopped. I have lost 11.5 lbs of pure fat! More important than just losing
weight, fat is what has disappeared from my stomach, thighs and hips. I have
much more energy and love the way my clothes fit.
If you are ready to make a real change, all you need to do is decide and commit, Maria
will guide you, coach you and help you feel amazing in your own skin. I highly recommend her.

I joined Women's Fitness before it even opened. Now it is like family. I do many different classes and there are several excellent instructors. Every class is different, so you don't get bored with them.
I know so many members by name, and the instructors know ours. It makes it a very friendly, familiar workout environment.
They don't spend money on updating or modernizing equipment, which is a shame, as their other locations are reportedly much newer and have fancier machines, but on the whole,it is a great gym. The best part for me is the convenient location, and the fact that it is only women, which changes the whole dynamic of the gym.

I have been a member of WFCC starting at the Promenade Mall for many years and moved to the Bayview location when I moved over 4 years ago. From the first time I started at this location, the staff have been very friendly and even know me by my first name and membership number. As regular member and through out my years I have always be strictly an elliptical machine user only. I was never a class type of person, but after much resistance, I have changed my daily workout regime and I love all the classes from Muscle Mix, Cardio Kick, and Cycling. The instructors at Bayview have been a great part of why I love attending the classes. The different types/styles of classes offered is a great way to mix up my routine and challenge my body in ways that I would have not done if I didn't change. I have noticed my body has changed as well. I have made many friends (both members and staff) and look forward to many more years of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and have Women Fitness at Bayview to thank.

I look forward to coming to this gym whenever I can, even though classes tend to get busy it goes to show that by popular demand this why people choose to come here. The atmosphere it extremely pleasant and clean plus I find the people who work there are very pleasant and helpful!!!!!!!!!!!

I workout at this gym 5 times a week. Classes are well attended. Some are so popular that there are waiting lists! The Cardio Kick Box and Muscle Mix classes by Alin, the Cycle classes with Elizabeth...I try to avoid the gym at these times as the parking lot is usually near capacity. As for the yoga – several of the instructors are also Moksha instructors! So not sure how these instructors are “Boring and out of date.” Management has added new / more classes to the schedule, including both Insanity and Muscle Mix on Sundays, Zumba on Thursdays and Mondays, Yoga on Thursdays, and another Alin class. So maybe management is no longer “refusing to make changes”?

If “Many members are leaving” maybe you should go with them...I would appreciate your parking spot during Alin’s class!

When you walk into the gym, you can tell that people here are good friends both inside and outside of the gym. I believe many people are neighbours and that their children are good friends.

If you are confused by the bright colours at the gym, please note that the building use to be a Colour Your World!

The gym is small – There is no pool, hot yoga, etc. However, your enrolment fees should reflect this! This gym is affordable, with good equipment and friendly staff.

If you choose to work out with a trainer, note that the fees are reasonable compared to other gyms in Toronto. Just make sure that you get placed with the right trainer for your personality and athletic ability. Personal training was one of the main reasons for me joining this gym.

The only downside to this gym is the parking can be a bit of an issue during some of the more popular classes. That being said...this is Toronto. How many gyms are there within the GTA core that offer free parking?

The gym is spacious and clean. I have never had a problem getting any type of machine. The staff are very friendly. My only negative comment would be the lack of fitness classes in the evening. The classes seem to be directed to people who are available to work out in the day time and the options in the evenings are practically not existent. I would love to see some evening cardio classes around 7:30 or 8:30 such as Turbo Kick.

I've been to allot of gyms but this one really keeps the place together. I never smell that rancid sweat odour. Its always clean and the people are friendly. I don't have to wait for machines either. I feel like i have space here. Its a great spot.

I just joined this gym a month ago and I love it! I picked it because it's close to my home, but they gave me a great membership rate, the facilities are lovely, clean and well-kept, and it's never crowded (though I haven't been on a Saturday). This place is just what I needed. I highly recommend it!
